Lycanthrope joins Dota 2

UPDATE: Lycanthrope is now available in the Dota 2 main client! The latest patch brings along a host of interface and hero changes along with the addition of Lycanthrope into Dota 2.

Renowned for being a powerful carry hero in DotA, his addition into the Dota 2 hero pool will certainly make an impact in the competitive scene when the hero is brought over to parity next week in the normal version of Dota 2.

Meanwhile, last week's addition of Shadow Demon has been brought into the Captain's Mode pool for tournament mode which means that fans can catch teams dealing with the potent disabler in matches beginning from this week. Further changes have been made to improve the visual effects of Shadow Demon's spells.

Players will also be given personal statistics on how well each hero is played relative to other players of similar skills. Be sure to use it to improve heroes you are weaker at, and brag about the heroes you own with.
